Biden* Had Amazon censor books critical of COVID vaccines
Quote:It has been revealed that Amazon censored books critical of Covid-19 vaccines at the behest of the Biden adminsitration.
The findings were uncovered by the House Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, and relayed to the public via X by Chairman Jim Jordan.
"Never-before-released internal emails subpoenaed by [Judiciary Committee] reveal that the Biden White House pressured Amazon to censor books that expressed views the White House did not approve of," Jordan wrote.
The demands were made by a senior Biden official named Andy Slavitt.
Jordan explained that on March 2, 2021, Slavitt "fired off an email demanding to know who he and his White House colleagues could talk to at the company about 'the high levels of propaganda and misinformation and disinformation of [sic] Amazon?'."
On March 9, Jordan said, "Amazon met with the White House. Internal Amazon documents reveal Amazon’s “top talking points” going into the meeting. One of the key questions was whether the Biden White House wanted books banned or just buried deep in the search results."
